5.1.1252766Falstaff 'Tis not due yet -- I would be loath to pay him before his 2767day. What need I be so forward with him that calls not on me? 2768Well, 'tis no matter, honor pricks me on. Yea, but how if honor 2769prick me off when I come on? How then? Can honor set to a leg? 2770No. Or an arm? No. Or take away the grief of a wound? No. 2772Honor hath no skill in surgery, then? No. What is honor? A word. What 2773is in that word "honor"? What is that "honor"? Air. A trim 2774reckoning! Who hath it? He that died a'Wednesday. Doth he feel it? 2775No. Doth he hear it? No. 'Tis insensible then? Yea, to the dead. But will 2776it not live with the living? No. Why? Detraction will not suffer it. 2777Therefore I'll none of it. Honor is a mere scutcheon. And so ends 2779my catechism.
